Voter registration forms will soon be dropping through letterboxes across Dartford

People are being urged to return the form as soon as possible to make their voice heard in any forthcoming elections.

Electoral registration officer, Graham Harris, said: “Registering to vote is very simple. All you have to do is update the annual canvass form with the details of everyone in your household who is eligible to vote and return it to us as soon as possible.

“If your details haven’t changed you can also reply via the internet, text or phone by following the instructions on the form.”

Households can opt to have their details excluded from the edited register.

This will mean the details cannot be bought by individuals and commercial organisations.

If you do not receive a form, call 01322 343501 or print one off at aboutmyvote.co.uk
